***Official 2018 Transfer Thread***

Also notable in the new rule: "The rule change ends the controversial practice in which some coaches or administrators would prevent students from having contact with specific schools. Conferences, however, still can make rules that are more restrictive than the national rule."
So does that mean a school can't prevent a transfer from going to particular schools? Does the Big 12 currently have a restriction on in-conference transfers, or has that only been a school policy?

It'll be interesting to see how this one plays out. On one hand, UK hasn't had a solid contributor that is an upper classmen in sevearl years. I'll be interested to see how having veteran like Travis will help the development on the young guys. On the other hand, that's 30 minutes a game out the window. Some MC AA that was probably promised the moon is going to get alot less run than he thought. May create a chemistry issue.

Hot take time — I think Travis is one of the more overrated players in CBB. He put up numbers on bad teams.

And he is oft-injured.

Where did Teddy Allen end up again?

Where did Teddy Allen end up again?

Wichita State. They were applying for him to be immediately eligible because his Mom died right after he committed to Huggy.

Oh that’s right. He’ll tear it up there.

He should be tearing it up here. I wish we wouldn’t have let him get away.

Too bad we don't have room for this Milwaukee Native who's transferring from Texas Southern. He was so much fun to watch last season.

He was/is fun to watch but that is someone I wouldn’t want ISU to touch with a 10 foot pole. And they wouldn’t.

Because of his height or what?

Height, really poor defender in large part because of the height, and there’s a good amount of character/off court concerns.

Not terribly surprising. Not every kid would want to transfer to a place where it's very possible that they won't land a ton of playing time.

ISU looking at a traditional transfer raised my eyebrow. Granted calling a player could just be exploratory and the staff is looking to add some experience to next years roster, but there isn't a scholarship available right now.

@EvanDaniels MTSU transfer Tyrik Dixon has heard from Houston, Iowa State & Arkansas Little Rock, per his mother. Sit one to play two.

Maybe willing to pay his own way for the year?

Hopefully that's the case. Heaven forbid it's because Lard isn't coming back or something. It's been pretty quiet on that front, which hopefully means nothing more than there's nothing to report.
